About: I’ve had taken care of lots of animals since I was 8. I’ve taken care of lots of special needs animals and animals that have set medicine application times. With my son back in school, my weekday schedule is more limited, but that means I’m able to be intentional about the bookings I do take. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles and care while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and routine matter to me, and I’ll always treat them like family! I always strive to make both pets and pet parents feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I respect every client’s home as if it were my own and carefully follow all routines, feeding schedules, and instructions. I’m comfortable crating pets if needed and always prioritize a calm, loving, and safe environment for every animal in my care.

“Danielle was very easy to communicate with, and we are very grateful for the peace of mind she gave us in watching our dogs while my fiancé and I worked long shifts. I could tell That she truly enjoys interacting with dogs, and from the pictures and texts she sent it was obvious that our dogs were comfortable with her and enjoyed her visits. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again to care for them.”

About: 🐾 Personalized Pet Care in a Calm Country Setting 🐾 First-time clients receive $20 off their first booking with promo code AMANDF33991 Hi! I'm Amanda, and pet care isn't just something I do—it's been my life's work for over 20 years. My background includes veterinary medicine, pet boarding, shelter and rescue work, pet sitting, and animal care at Walt Disney World's Best Friends Pet Care. I specialize in providing personalized care for senior pets, anxious pets, and those with medical needs who may not thrive in a traditional boarding environment. Your pet will stay in a quiet home setting with individualized attention, comfortable accommodations, and plenty of opportunities to relax, explore, and feel at home while you're away. 🐶 What I Offer • Boarding in a calm home environment • Drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and other pets • Medication administration • Senior pet care • Experience with medical and special-needs pets • Rural property with plenty of space to sniff and explore • Flexible scheduling • Midday potty breaks and regular supervision throughout the day 🐾 A Good Fit For • Senior dogs • Anxious or shy pets • Dogs who prefer a quieter environment • Pets with medical needs • Families looking for individualized care rather than large group boarding I grew up in a family-run Shar-Pei kennel and have spent more than two decades working with animals. My experience includes veterinary medicine, pet boarding, pet sitting, rescue work, shelter management, Disney's Best Friends Pet Care, and PetSmart Pet Hotel. I am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, birds, small mammals, livestock, and pets with significant medical or behavioral needs. To provide individualized care, I intentionally limit the number of boarding guests I accept at one time. However, multi-dog families are welcome; please message for updated availability.

About: I've taken care of family and friends pets of all kinds and sizes. No animal is too tricky for me, I love a pet that is just as unique as their mom or dad! I'm currently available Monday-Friday with occasional weekends. I am in between jobs so my schedule can fit your needs! I even don't mind hanging out with your fur baby more than once a day if needed. I have a fully fenced in acre of land and a brand new car that is reliable for any pick up needs. I also have multiple pet beds and toys at my house if any time there is requested. We lost our fur baby in January so my house may still have her scent in spots. I've lived in Gainesville for 6 years, but have known the roads of Gainesville for 12, so I am very comfortable with the town and know the best walking spots!

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and cats (small and large, often multiple at once), and animals tend to connect with me easily. For over 10 years I rescued and fostered cats and kittens, and along the way I also cared for a boa, several birds, a hedgehog, and mice. I’m comfortable and genuinely happy caring for all kinds of animals with patience, love, and respect. At home, I have two cats of my own, Juno (4) and Vesta (3). Vesta needs daily eye drops, so I’m well-practiced in medication administration and comfortable with pets who need a little extra care. I offer drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I treat every pet as if they were my own — consistent routines, lots of affection, and close attention to their needs. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands. I’m available full-time, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. With years of experience caring for cats, dogs, and other animals, pet care fits easily into my flexible daily routine. At home I have two cats, Juno and Vesta, both comfortable around visiting pets. I’m experienced with medication administration (Vesta gets daily eye drops), dog walking and will keep a calm, clean, attentive environment for every animal in my care.

“My Lexi was in good hands with Evelyn. I was in Europe at the time that I had to arrange for extra help. I loved the photos she sent me of their walks together. I could tell that Lexi was happier when they got together, she always had a smile on her face. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have plenty of hands-on experience from caring for my own dog, who is about 100 pounds! Having a large dog has made me very comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I also trained her myself, so I have experience with basic commands, routines, leash walking, and being patient and consistent. I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pet, so I’ll always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and love. I’ll treat every pet I care for like they’re my own! Pet care fits really well into my daily routine, and I have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to make plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m used to planning my day around my own dog’s needs, so caring for pets is already a normal part of my everyday life. I’m also flexible throughout the week and can work with different schedules depending on what you and your pet need! I always make safety and comfort my top priorities when caring for someone’s pet. I’ll follow any instructions and routines the owner provides, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific rules they have for their pet. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and are never put in an unsafe situation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’ll also be respectful of their space and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, so I’ll always care for them like I would my own!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Archer. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Archer after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
